Default You're all going to end up buying it.

EDIT:
In light of this:
http://www.subsim.com/ssr/sh5/preview_sh5_jan2010.php
Type 7 only, ends in 43 - I stand corrected. In a nutshell, Das boot the video game ending in 43. Fully rendered interiors and spiffy graphics isn't enough of a carrot incentive considering the limited career game options.


--------------------------------------------

And all the nay saying, worrying, drum beating, finger pointing, horn blowing, name calling, and forum lobbying isn't going to amount to squat. The crack that is eyecandy will be too much to resist. Like an addict suffering from withdraw, you're all going to end up buying it at some point. Just sayin'.

Nah...

you don't know me . . .there's little that I hate more than a Silent Hunter 3 wannabe . . .which flop . . . even when the title uses silent hunter something too in it. From what I've seen I'm not impressed . . . if that auuugha auugha whistle is of any indication....

I, for one, agree with Ducimus. We will all buy it, eventually...

A fully rendered interior in 3D guarantee's it. Just not everyone will admit it.

^Not only that but after it was modded to oblivion (no S.T.A.L.K.E.R. pun intended ) it might, just MIGHT, be as good as SH3.....

I admit I can't resist Napoleon Total War due to its playability and massive scope .

As for SH V make it right or bye bye. I'm a real fan of sub warfare so if it's going to be arcade it's like a heresy to me with or without full 3D interior. Don't even like that pointing the mouse will OUTLINE usable tools and crews.

Before buying it on release, I want an answer to these:

1) Will there be other type of boat than the type VII ?
2) Will there be AI operated boats forming wolfpacks ?

If the answer is No to these two questions, then I'll be reconsidering it.

Seriously, don't you think it would be ABSURD to FOCUS ONLY on the TYPE VII AND IGNORE WOLFPACKS???

I edited the post. after starting to wonder where the VIIC stuff started... now looking into it... Im getting alittle on the huh side.

Well, Im guessing, that the VIIC will be the only boat with a full interior, and the other boats (if there is any) will only have the norm... (it will have other boats, but mainly focus on the VII class.)

People keep bringing up the klaxon. They've already said it would have a real German voice set.

Anyway, I'll be sure to remind you of this when you do buy it.

About the Type VII, check this: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...94#post1236994


About wolfpacks, it doesn't look good, from community Q&A (and no news since then):

Quote:
Will there be any AI operated boats forming a Wolfpack?

There will be AI operated boats. Wolfpack mechanics are under consideration. This is something we always wanted to do but we want to do them properly so there’s a question if we’ll be able to fit them before release.
